For the optimum choice, gaze into your crystal ball and see how things go a year after your surgery. For a large fraction of prospective patients, #1 is all they'll need. (Myself included, I don't even need the astigmatism correction I had in my glasses!) #2 might be the optimum for most of the rest, if there are some lingering problems with the eye settling and the prospect of buying multiple glasses, even with the fancy in-eye measurement (my wife is in this group). I'm not sure what the clinical evidence you'd need #3 looks like -- personally, sounds like your ophthamologist may be paying for a sailboat.
